Attacking Messi, Ronaldo Calls the Saudi Arabian League Better than MLS

New York, Beritasatu.com – The rivalry between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi continues, even when the two football stars are now active in different continents.

The day after Messi was officially signed by the Major League Soccer (MLS) club, Inter Miami, Ronaldo launched a verbal attack on his old rival.

The Portuguese player who plays for the Al Nassr club stated that his new league in Saudi Arabia was better than MLS.

“My chances of returning to Europe are closed. I’m over 38 years old and it’s not worth it. Europe has lost a lot of quality. The only one that is one of the best is the Premier League. The Spanish league has lost its level, the Portuguese league is not ‘top’, the Premier League Germany also lost a lot of quality. The United States? No, the Saudi Arabian League is much better than the United States,” said Ronaldo.

Since Ronaldo’s arrival, the Saudi Arabian League has also attracted other international stars, such as France’s Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kante, Brazil’s Roberto Firmino, Senegal’s Edouard Mendy, Serbia’s Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Croatia’s Marcelo Brozovic.

“In one year, more and more top players will come to Saudi Arabia. In one year the Saudi league will overtake the Turkish league and the Dutch league,” said Ronaldo.
